چکیده

Image segmentation plays an important role in diagnosis and treatment of diseases. Image segmentation locates objects and boundaries with in images and the segmentation process is stopped when region of interest is separated from the input image. Based on the application, region of interest may differ and hence none of the segmentation algorithm satisfies the global applications. Thus segmentation still remains a challenging area for researchers. This paper emphasis on comparison study of segmentation techniques for segmenting brain tumour from MRI images. The tumour area is identified by using different algorithms like seeded region growing and merging, K-Means, KNN, fuzzy C-Means and a comparative study of all this methods is presented here. Keywords— Brain tumour; MRI images; Edge detection; Image segmentation; Fuzzy C-Mean; K-Means; KNN Full Text: http://www.ijcsmc.com/docs/papers/November2013/V2I11201363.pdf

Quantitative Comparison of SPM, FSL, and Brainsuite for Brain MR Image Segmentation

Background: Accurate brain tissue segmentation from magnetic resonance (MR) images is an important step in analysis of cerebral images. There are software packages which are used for brain segmentation. These packages usually contain a set of skull stripping, intensity non-uniformity (bias) correction and segmentation routines. Thus, assessment of the quality of the segmented gray matter (GM), ...

Introduction: Magnetic Resonance (MR) imaging has emerged as a valuable tool in radiation treatment (RT) planning as well as Positron Emission Tomography (PET) imaging owing to its superior soft-tissue contrast. Due to the fact that there is no direct transformation from voxel intensity in MR images into electron density, itchr('39')s crucial to generate a pseudo-CT (Computed Tomography) image ...

A Review on Brain Tumour Detection Using Image Segmentation

Tumour is an uncontrolled growth of tissues in any part of the body. Tumours are of different types and characteristics and have different treatments. Detection of tumour in the earlier stages makes the treatment easier. Here a brief review of different segmentation methods used for detection of tumour from Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) of brain has been discussed. Finally we propose an auto...
